At a time when climate change is at the top of the global political agenda, China has come to a point where continued economic growth must be balanced with environmental limitations. Through the implementation of ambitious national targets that bear on climate mitigation, the Chinese leadership is showing that it is willing to actively participate in the global climate game.
This is one of the key conclusions from a new report authored by SEI researchers Karl Hallding, Guoyi Han and Marie Olsson.
The report, entitled A Balancing Act: China’s Role in Climate Change was, like Sea Change: US Climate Policy Prospects under the Obama Administration, prepared for the Swedish Commission on Sustainable Development and presented during a seminar in April 2009. The two reports together present a comprehensive picture of the decisive roles China and the United States will come to play in Copenhagen in December 2009.
